Welcome to Episode #111! We bring back @HubieTalksHoops for a wide-ranging show talking Bill Simmons, NBA, sports media and more. We first continue our ongoing coverage of Zach Lowe to The Ringer, where Hubie hits on some points we haven't discussed over the last few episodes. We also get his view on how Lowe fits with Russillo and whether Ryen will re-up or stay when his contract is up.

Next we get into NBA playoff scenarios and look at the best and worst case outcomes for Bill. Obviously the Celtics and Lakers factor strongly into the discussion, and we explore just how crushing an LA win over Boston would be. But we also touch on several other outcomes where Bill could come out on top vs. taking an L were they to happen - we're loaded with potential storylines this postseason. And Hubie breaks down why he thinks the Lakers actually have a legit shot to win - music to the ears of Bill Simmons listeners.

We finish up the pod talking NBA Twitter stories with Hubie, including his interactions with Woj and the rise of NBA Centel - who Hubie knew and gave advice to very early on. Hope you guys enjoy the episode, and be sure to follow @HubieTalksHoops on Twitter - and check him out on Episode 29.
